hi..

what other credit cards can you suggest that are issued by other credit card company or banks aside for the American Express credit cards?

can you give me some benefits that American Express credit cards do not have? or simply give me one advantage of a card that would put an edge over the American Express cards?

thanks..

hello there,

aside for American Express credit cards, i can show you more credit cards coming from other card issuers such as Capital One, MBNA, CitiBank and more.

these cards offer exclusive benefits that is not offer to other credit cards. usually these kind of cards require good or excellent credit history which mean that these are only limited to those who have maintained a good rating.

not all of the card applicant can get these card as application for this card undergone strict scrutinizing by the card issuer as this cards give excellent offers. one of the top benefit of these cards is the high credit limit reaching around $100,000 and could be stretched further. there are a lot more features.

here is the link of the Best Platinum Credit Cards in Canada:

browse on each card to identify the exclusive offers that these cards provide their clients and compare them. in that way, you can then decide which card is suitable for you.

if ever you come to a point that you get confused on some things whether on the credit card offers, benefits or features. you can post it in this thread and i can assist or help you. thank you.

hi..

is this new card benefit of American Express Platinum Card true to all the credit cards? or just available to some credit cards?

i am asking this because my friend is holding a American Express Air Miles Platinum Credit Card. if ever i will go along with my friend on a trip, will i be included in the lounge benefit that is currently offered by the platinum card?

i would be sad if i won't be able to get access with the lounge benefit. i would just be seating around looking at my friend enjoying the card's benefit. i would rather go alone than being with my friend and just meet up with him when we reach the destination we are going.

Here is one recent article about Platinum card holders. In this situation, Platinum card members get to enjoy them with friends and family.
